RIP dear Kenny. To Toney and family, my deepest sympathy and heartfelt sorrow for your loss. I knew Kenny from school as well as worked with him at Southside Va Training Center in Food Service. I always remembered his birthday being Halloween, same as our classmate, Joni Williams. Never will be forgotten, Kenny. God bless your family and God speed in healing their broken hearts and relieving their grief. Time will heal and tears today will gradually become smiles of the many years of memories you all shared with Kenny. I will never forget his smile. Very much like Toney's.
